The video provides a concise, user-friendly reference for hatchery operators on the decapsulation of Artemia cysts, a process that removes the outer shell to improve hatching efficiency, reduce contamination risks and allow the direct use of decapsulated cysts as feed. It shows the complete procedure, from cyst hydration and chemical decapsulation to monitoring, washing, chlorine neutralization and storage. It also highlights essential safety measures, including the handling of hazardous chemicals, temperature control and proper effluent management. The video is based on the fact sheet Artemia hatchery practices – Cyst decapsulation, developed as part of a series of practical, on-farm hatchery management guides building on the FAO Artemia Manual.
